CAUTION!
Do not overfill the engine oil. Overfill-
ing will cause oil aeration, which can
lead to a loss of oil pressure and an
increase in oil temperature. This could
damage your engine. Also, be sure the
oil fill cap is replaced and tightened
after adding oil.
Engine Oil Additives
The manufacturer strongly recom-
mends against the addition of any ad-
ditives (other than leak detection
dyes) to the engine oil. Engine oil is
an engineered product and its perfor-
mance may be impaired by supple-
mental additives.
Disposing of Used Engine Oil
Care should be taken in disposing of
used engine oil from your vehicle.
Used oil, indiscriminately discarded,
can present a problem to the environ-
ment. Contact your authorized Chery
dealer, service station, or government
agency for advice on how and where
used oil can be safely discarded in
your area.
Engine Oil Filter
The engine oil filter should be re-
placed at every engine oil change.
Catalytic Converter
The catalytic converter requires the
use of unleaded fuel only. Leaded
gasoline will destroy the effectiveness
of the catalyst as an emissions control
device. Under normal operating con-
ditions, the catalytic converter will not
require maintenance. However, it is
important to keep the engine properly
tuned to assure proper catalyst opera-
tion and prevent possible catalyst
damage.
CAUTION!
Damage to the catalytic converter can
occur if your vehicle is not kept in
proper operating condition. In the
event of engine malfunction, particu-
larly involving engine misfire or other
apparent loss of performance, have
your vehicle serviced promptly. Contin-
ued operation of your vehicle with a
severe malfunction could cause the
converter to overheat, resulting in pos-
sible damage to the converter and the
vehicle.
